The decklists are expected with these previews, and we will add each one to this page as it is revealed. Schedule from Wizards' Star Trek previews page.

Also debuting at MagicCon Atlanta in November: Mystery Booster Commander Edition, a 20-card Commander Draft booster with 60 new commanders.

Federation Fleet (Jeskai, Jean-Luc Picard, Luminary), Landing Party (Bant, Commander Spock), Klingon Fury (Mardu, Worf, Defiant Commander), and We Are the Borg (Esper, The Borg Queen). Two Starfleet decks, one Klingon aggro deck, one Borg villain deck. Every deck ships in a standard edition ($74.99 MSRP) and a Collector's Edition ($159.99 MSRP).

The Next Generation flagship deck. Jean-Luc Picard, Luminary leads a Jeskai Spacecraft build that uses the station mechanic from Edge of Eternities to charge ships into threats. His ability word is seek out, a Commander-only trigger on the second card you draw each turn that puts charge counters on a Spacecraft. Whether the deck also plays the set's Federation ability word is confirmed on decklist day, October 27. It is the engine-forward, go-tall option, and the slowest of the four to get going. Full breakdown: Federation Fleet upgrade guide.

The Original Series deck and the most beginner-friendly of the four. Commander Spock fronts a Bant lands build. His ability word is strange new worlds, which counts the differently named lands you control, so each new nonbasic land matters more than another basic. Whether the rest of the deck is built around landfall is confirmed on decklist day, October 29. Cheap and easy to upgrade. Full breakdown: Landing Party upgrade guide.

The aggro deck. Worf, Defiant Commander leads a Mardu Klingons build that attacks fast and wide, with a sub-theme of disabling opposing artifacts and enchantments. Like most aggro precons, it wants upgrades to close games. Full breakdown: Klingon Fury upgrade guide.

The villain deck and the early fan favorite. The Borg Queen uses the assimilate keyword to convert creatures into Borg while Esper steals and copies the table's best cards. Assimilate is not exclusive to this deck: Borg Cube carries it in the main set. The grindy control-combo pick. Full breakdown: We Are the Borg upgrade guide.

New to Commander, or want the smoothest game out of the box: Landing Party. Love artifacts, engines, and building up to a big turn: Federation Fleet. Want to attack and end games early: Klingon Fury. Want the most powerful, take-over-the-table deck and do not mind drawing threats: We Are the Borg. Whichever you pick, start with the fifteen cards that improve any precon. If you would rather upgrade something you can buy today, the six Reality Fracture Commander precons are broken down deck by deck here.

Every one of the four decks has a Collector's Edition counterpart. Per Wizards' July 14, 2026 announcement, the standard Commander deck is $74.99 MSRP and the Collector's Edition is $159.99 MSRP. The Collector's Edition has the same cards, all in surge foil, with a borderless face commander. If you are buying the deck to keep your captain foil on the battlefield, that is the box to preorder. The Borg Queen and Picard editions are the ones collectors are watching most. Store prices can differ from MSRP.

Four. Federation Fleet is Jeskai, Landing Party is Bant, Klingon Fury is Mardu, and We Are the Borg is Esper. Wizards named the face commanders on October 20, 2026: Jean-Luc Picard, Luminary (Federation Fleet), Commander Spock (Landing Party), Worf, Defiant Commander (Klingon Fury) and The Borg Queen (We Are the Borg). That is two Starfleet decks, one Klingon aggro deck and one Borg villain deck, each with a Collector's Edition.

The Star Trek set releases November 13, 2026. In North America, Wizards says the Commander decks are delayed and may arrive after November 13, so check with your store for availability. Wizards revealed all four decks and their colors at the July 14, 2026 first look. The decks are previewed October 26 to 29, and full decklists are expected then (not out as of October 18, 2026).

November 6, 2026. Wizards says Play Boosters and Prerelease Packs are on track for Prerelease events. The full set releases November 13.

Yes, in some regions. On October 16, 2026, Wizards said North American Commander decks may arrive after the November 13 release date. Commander decks in Europe, the Middle East and Africa are also delayed. Wizards says the delays are fluid, so check with your local game store or retailer.

Wizards lists each Star Trek Commander deck at $74.99 MSRP and each Collector's Edition at $159.99 MSRP, per its July 14, 2026 Collecting Star Trek article. Store and preorder prices can be higher or lower than MSRP.

We Are the Borg looks the most powerful on paper and is the early fan favorite, built on assimilate, the Borg keyword that also appears on the main-set Borg Cube. Landing Party is the most beginner-friendly and the cheapest to upgrade. Take Federation Fleet for artifacts and engines, Klingon Fury to end games early. All four are upgradeable.

The same cards as the standard deck, all in surge foil, with a borderless face commander. There are no extra cards. The Collector's Edition is $159.99 MSRP against $74.99 for the standard deck. The Borg Queen and Picard editions are the two collectors are watching most closely.
